Can you serve it with bread or milk? Maybe add a bit of sugar? That might help cool it down.

I would probably add some sour cream and a couple of peeled potatoes.

If you use sugar, just add a bit at a time and taste until it is less spicy.

i put a little brown sugar, a little more water and another can of tomatoes.. it toned it down.. it was still semi spicey.. kinda a medium. for ds2 and ds3 i added a little milk to there bowel. ds1 ate it and a2 ate it ds3 piked at it. the brown sugar and spicey mix together gave it a hickory taste,, it was good.. b ut i still prefer the usal mild i make.. dh, he loved it hot.. :jawdrop
